I use anaconda as a way to handle virtual environments. This means I have multiple version of python installed. I experience that the wrong python version starts when I run python from the shell.

Running

Which python
/anaconda3/envs/dash-two/bin/python

type -a python
 python is /anaconda3/envs/dash-two/bin/python
 python is /usr/bin/python

Inspired by this post I have tried hash -t python and looked at the output of alias
